When to Fly to Swords

You can always rely on the unpredictability of the Irish weather. One moment the sun is shining, the next there are dark clouds forming overhead. Not ideal if you’re trying to organise a garden party of course, but the vagaries of the skies above do at least make for a reliable conversation starter. October to January traditionally see the Swords area receive the highest amount of rainfall, while June to August tend to be the warmest months of the year. Summertime also sees the fantastic Flavours of Fingal Agricultural and Horticultural Festival, held at the Newbridge House and Gardens, a grand day out.
